EU names star panel of innovation advisors
Commissioner Moedas’ plans for a European Innovation Council move a step forward with naming of 15 top investors and entrepreneurs to advise. The Commission said the new panel will advise on the effort targeting breakthrough innovation projects with the potential for scaling up, and also make recommendations for the future role of the EIC from 2021. The group will start meeting in March, and “feed into” another group planning the next Framework Programme for EU R&D.
